Fans of Crusader Kings II will be happy to note that the expansion, Way of Life, will be launching on December 16th. The expansion contains ten different focuses and gives players more of an RPG feel to their RTS in the form of new diplomacy options and more.

Set a Focus - Give your rulers a “way of life” by assigning them a Focus that will give an immediate boost to their skills and help shape the course of their development through events and decisions – new and old. There are ten different Focuses available to your characters:

• Rulership – Be a better king!• Business – Gold is good• Hunting – Kill the beast!• War – What’s yours is mine• Family – the most important thing, right?• Carousing - ahem• Seduction – double ahem• Intrigue – sneaky, sneak• Scholarship – We love to learn• Theology – Do it for the big guy upstairs

Dust off your jewelled turban and defend dharma as a mighty Indian Raja, conquering in the name of Indra! Raise war elephant units and fight in the dense jungle terrain. Make Siddhartha proud as a Buddhist and advance your technology or maintain a harmonious stable realm as a Jain. Raid your neighbors as a warlike Hindu of the Kshatriya caste!
Crusader Kings II: Rajas of India introduces a wealth of new cultural and religious events that would appease even the ferocious goddess Kali, including meeting yogis and sadhus, celebrating Diwali and thinking about your reincarnation. Be careful, the Wheel of Life keeps on turning and those karmic forces can be equally cruel!
With all eyes on Hindustan, the map has been extended far to the east to encompass hundreds of new provinces in Central Asia as well as opening up the ports of The Red Sea and Indian Ocean for navigation by your fleets.
L'uscita della DLC è prevista per questa primavera.
